Damn, that seems to be a particularly “dry” area for installers…
Hopefully someone from the area will swing by at some point with some tips.
One more note that I know Amal emphasizes a lot:
Was this via phone call or an in-person appointment? Phone calls or email almost always fail sadly, while people have had decent success rates with bringing it up IRL.
This guide is very very good, and I would highly recommend trying it (if there’s any piercers nearby you hadn’t asked yet 
)
If you did indeed ask in-person, well… you’re a little low on options. There’s always Pirate here in West Lafayette Indiana (did all 3 of my x series), but that’s a cool 6.5-7 hour drive each way…
